Dr. ALBREcht MIESBACH Wehrwirtschaftsführer Zlin, the board member of Bata A. G. The consolidation can be regarded as almost complete, although the work has suffered very serious damage due to the partisan uprising. The director of Batovany's work is in possession of a certificate from the SD department in Slovakia that he is to be regarded as politically reliable and therefore he is allowed to carry arms and move freely in the Nitra district. Thus, the allegations against the management of the work are proved to be completely unfounded. On the actual situation in the Slovak economy and parts of the Slovak economy during the uprising, the undersigned person could provide informative oral information.The Slovak Bata company is a loO% subsidiary of Bata A.G., Zlin, which is known to have a strong German representation in the Supervisory Board and the Executive Board. Therefore, it cannot be the same for the signed German business manager if rumors are circulating about the Aowak Bata company, which do not correspond to the facts; the signed german business manager is therefore endeavouring to point out the actual circumstances.
